Before the year 2000 the firts number is the year in a ten year rotation, so 3 is either 1983 or 1993, the 83 model will have a white cover the 93 will have either grey or orange top cover, the next two nubers are the week so it was week twenty, the 61 ran for a long time, it was a very reliable machine, through out its life it has had quite a few changes, it went from a two piece ignition unit too a single unit. I can e mail a parts list if you supply am e mail address.

SOURCE: husqvarna chain saw oiler

My Husky 36 did this. The oil pump drive gear was stripped and had to be replace. It's located under the flywheel/sprocket so you have to pull that. I couldn't find info on how to do that so had a local shop repair it for $70! Parts are cheap, labor is not.

SOURCE: What year was my 61

Prior to the year 2000, the first digit of the ser no, was the year of manufacture in a ten year rotation, so 0 was either 1980 or 1990, if it has a white top cover it will be an early machine, if it has a grey top cover it is the intermediate machine, and the later machine that ran into the year 2000 had a orange top cover, as you can see the 61 ran for many years, it was an outstanding machine, the pro version was the 162 and later on the 266.most parts are still readily available.

Decoding a serial number

I am pretty good but single year serials are beyond my expertise (black on silver or silver on black sn tag is one key). Husqvarna Contact Us: UShttp://www.husqvarna.com/us/homeowner/support/customer-support/ HusqvarnaUSA.com

06 = year produced – 2006 (single digit before 2000)
15 = week produced - March

Looking at the availabl IPLs it could be 87 or 97. They will help with decode. Lets let the real experts help. LOL

Cant figure out what year my saw is?

I think you have the model number. The first digit of the serial number is the year. If that is indeed the sn then it was made in 89 or 99.
sn 04 1800265 (04 - year) (18 - week) (00265 - 265th saw that week) pretty clever these Swedes.

Bought a chain saw a little over a year ago...was very satisfied with its performance...needed some repair recently...had it looked at by a husky dealer...he said since it is less than 2 years old the...

Hi franconiachi,

Yes, chain saws earned their keep this past winter!
If you paid for it with a credit card, the dealer you bought it from may be able to pull up the original recipe, though I guess more than a year ago may be backed up already.

I'm not a Husky dealer, but if he could provide you with a contact who could, I would think that someone at Husqvarna corporate could verify the manufacture date.

Another idea is to go through you old bank statement, find the transaction, photocopy it and either use that to track down the original recipe through the original dealer -- they'd then have the exact date and could fax a reprint to you -- or maybe the Husky dealer would accept it.

Reminds me to send in my warranty card...

Good luck,
railer
